Those are standard plays. Some people prefer one over the other. My preference has always been to just stick it in there on the flop if I think my hand is good.

I disagree with pushing every small edge in a tourney though but in this case you're probably 2 to 1 over the minraising hand (given various minraising hands) so I would push. If for some reason you're sure what he has I would take a card off if he's the type of player that I can get in a better spot--he's not folding anyway.
